The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of
Eastern Michigan University and as such can
receive donations through the EMU Foundation,
which is a registered 501(c) Non Profit
organization. Our Federal Tax number is
38-6005986. These donations can be offset
against your federal and sometimes your state
tax return (U.S. tax payers only). For more
information visit the IRS Web-Site, or
contact your financial advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching
program, such that they will match any gift
you make to a non-profit organization.
Normally this entails your contacting your
human resources department and sending us a
form that the EMU Foundation fills in and
returns to your employer. This is generally a
simple administrative procedure that doubles
the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without
costing you an extra penny. Please take a
moment to check if your company operates such
a program.
